Since November 15th, LaMelo Ball is averaging 35.3/6.8/8.8/1.3/0.3 on 60.8% TS despite only averaging 4.5 FTA per game. He has finished with at least 34/5/5 in each game, that is the longest streak of 34+ point games by any player at any point so far this season.

The Hornets are 2-2 during this stretch. They have faced the Bucks, Knicks, Celtics and Wizards.

With the way LaMelo is playing right now he is definetly looking like he will make his second All-Star appearance. He also has the second longest active streak of 25+ point games in a row with 9. He is only second to Kevin Durant who currently has 14.

Lamelo is an empty stats on a bad team kind of guy. Until he starts playing winning basketball consistently this is not exciting. I hope he gets it together and leads the Hornets to something other than what they have been because it has been bad…

Yeah the Hornets have never been above .500 in a season with LaMelo and LaMelo doesn’t consistbetly increase these winning % everytime he plays. He is not like Shai who did way more with OKC in his firat 3 years there. /s

I see you are in your feelings a bit and that is okay, it happens to the best of us. The hornets are a dumpster fire right now and have been for years. Lamelo has not played well outside of the 21-22 season. Unfortunately, he has been held up with injuries and has not had a clear upwards progression. As a basketball fan I would be excited to see him get back on track as one of the best young playmakers/shot creators in the league. Also as a basketball fan I am not going to jack him off for a good week. Show me consistency and I will be happy to praise him.
